The Heart and Craft Behind Sweet Bee: Our Story

Hi Friends! If you’ve been following along, you might have seen that Shawn and I recently introduced Sweet Bee Artisan Boards. I’ve shared a bit about our new adventure, but today I want to give you a closer look into something a little more personal.

For those who know me primarily as a physician blogger, this may seem a bit different from my usual posts. But Sweet Bee is incredibly special to me—especially because it’s something I’m building with Shawn, who is not only my partner in this venture but also the love of my life (!!)

Shawn is the craftsman behind Sweet Bee. He pours so much care into every piece, spending thoughtful hours in the workshop carefully selecting the perfect wood and turning it into something special. His dedication to his craft is inspiring, and it’s what makes each board unique and full of character. I’ve always admired the love and attention to detail he brings to everything he creates.

While Shawn is busy creating, I’ve taken on the role of sharing our story with you—through blog posts, Facebook updates, and plenty of loving support. Our love for family heritage and creativity drives us to ensure that Sweet Bee isn’t just about the boards—it’s about the stories, values, and memories that each piece represents. And yes, the name “Sweet Bee” comes from my nickname, “Bee,” adding a personal touch to everything we do!
